Tires look good, when’s the lift/leveling kit getting installed?

Noob question: how do you recalibrate the speedometer after upsizing the tires?

If we can use ForScan with Mavs, I believe you can do it thru that. Not sure anyone has verified it.

They look good. Those toyos are nice tires. Any change in road noise?

Not too bad. There’s a little, but it’s nothing that will annoy you. It’s tolerable

Haven’t decided yet on when, but I’ll go with leveling kit for now from rough country.

Just got my Toyo Open Country AT3’s 245/70/17 Factory wheels Lariat FX4

Those look just right!! I'm thinking if I had ordered a gasser I'd be right thee with you!!

This truck has earned my respect. It’s useful and economical as a daily. I really do like it

Someone else said that about the toyos not being noisy. It's a little surprising considering how aggressive the tread looks. Can't get over how good they look though. I had a friend years ago that put big knobby mud tires on his truck and riding in it was like listening to a continuous bronx cheer. THAT was annoying.

thanks

I ordered a hybrid Area 51 XLT, 360 back on 15 Aug. I may do the same after seeing yours. Wanna get my GT350 off the road for the winter.

Some more pictures

Awesome addition. You can see how the tires fills the wheel well nicely. Any extra road noise with the new rubber. I had those on my wrangler. Great snow and rain tires. I believe they're 3 snowflakes.

Opps just saw someone else already asked about the road noise. Thanks

Good news is Ford took my wheel off and we confirmed it was 37.5 offset. Now I can shop!

Nice! Can’t wait to see the new wheels

Can you please tell us which service department that is? It sounds to me like you are openly acknowledging committing fraud by looking for reasons to deny warranty work.

How is that fraud if the warranty expressly prohibits oversized tires?

Plus cite the warranty that says bigger tires are not allowed

You really should read it. Lots of useful information.

What is considered an oversized tire?
